Employee Appreciation Day is an event, observed on the first Friday in March, meant for employers to give thanks or recognition to their employees. It was created by Dr. Bob Nelson who was a founding member of Recognition Professionals International in 1995, initially to celebrate the publication of his book 1,001 Ways to Reward Employees and to remind employers to thank their employees when they do good work. Dr. Bob did his doctoral dissertation on why managers do or do not recognize their employees and has since helped thousands of companies create a Culture of Recognition in their organization with significant impacts on employee retention, performance and the ability to attract talent.
Today the book is revised and it is called '1501 Ways to Reward Employees: Low-Cost and No-Cost Ideas '"1501 Ways to Reward Employees" opens with an all-new exploration of trends affecting managers in the second decade of the 2151 century, focusing on five key trends affecting today's workforce: Attracting/Retaining Skilled Talent: The Growing Worker Shortage; How the Millennials Are Changing the Rules at Work; The Rise of the Contingent Worker (Freelancers, Consultants, Contractors); The Evolving Role of Virtual Employees; and, Motivating and Rewarding a Globally Diverse Workforce. "1501 Ways" also combines the best of the first two editions, with hundreds of new examples of how companies are using rewards and recognitions to boost productivity and keep employees happy.
This is the day for expressing sincere gratitude to each and every one of our employees across the globe for their commitment, dedication, collaborative spirit and hard work the pillars that uphold company’s values and drive our success.
We are continually inspired by the dedication, resilience, creativity and passion each person brings to their role. You are not just employees; you are the heart of this company, and your contributions are vital to our shared achievements and future aspirations.
